What’s the difference between Open Source and Datalab’s paid On-Prem options?

Our free open-source options (Chandra, Marker, and Surya) are ideal for research, personal use, and early-stage startups. Our paid on-prem options are for teams that need a commercial license to run our models and have one or multiple of the following requirements:

Require data privacy/operate in highly-regulated environments
Extremely high volume
Model training or customization
White-glove support and SLAs

Here’s a more detailed breakdown.

	Free (Open Source)	Datalab On-Prem
Intended Use	Research, personal use, startups < $2M ARR/funding	Commercial workloads requiring data privacy, easy deployments, and white-glove support
Models	Open source model weights	Access to newer, more accurate models not available in open source (e.g., latest Chandra versions)
License	GPL + custom RAILs	Commercial license to use our models on-prem (Marker/Surya/Chandra) without sublicensing. Custom rights as needed.
Deployment	Self-install from OSS repos	Custom deployment topologies and Datalab-assisted rollout options as-needed. For small deployments, we have a Docker image that is simple to use and upgrade.
Support	Community only	Premium support with SLAs
Contracting	None	Custom agreements and security reviews. For POCs and small deployments we offer no-redline agreements to get started, fast.
Billing	Free	Invoice/PO, custom terms. For small deployments we offer credit card checkout.
Scale and Performance	Self-effort	Throughput/latency/accuracy tuning; custom page counts; custom rate limits. For small deployments we offer optimized single-GPU support that is simple to deploy and operate.

For higher page volume & GPU concurrency, fully-airgapped deployments, white glove support, and other custom needs,
